A number of important
changes have been made in
the Federal Social Security !
Act in recent months which
will be of interest to all Clinton
and Lydia employees.
The new changes include increased
payments, increasing
the amount a person may
earn and still receive oldage
and survivor's benefits,
wage credits for _ertain military
service, and changes
making it possible to pay full
benefits or to pay them more
promptly in case of retirement

Toes Are Mighty
But Highly
Ever stop to wonder why
you have toes?
They are really quite remarkable
because they help
you do the best balancing act
of all time in keeping erect
a body that is far too tall and
heavy for its base. When you
stand they spread out so you
won't tip over or rock back
and forth. In walking, you
extend your toes when you
lift your heel, and this prevents
you from falling on
your face. Then they push
your body forward and lift
your foot off the ground so
you can stride along erect
and not on all fours like
other animals of the animal
kingdom.
You wouldn't be able to
stand or walk unaided without
your toes. So it's a smart
idea to keep them in good
working order bv protecting
them against accidents. You
folks at Clinton and Lydia
Mills?how about your toes?
A two pound weight falling
from waist height can break
or painfully hurt your toes.
Most workers are exposed to
such hazards and should

ounce steel cap inside the
tips of these shoes protects
the toes if a weight falls on
them or if they should be
pinched between two objects.
Despite the fact that they
weight so little, these safety
caps have saved thousands of
workers from amputations,
the usual result of having
toes crushed. They will also
save you from pain, hospital
bills and disability.
Workers have sometimes
hesitated to wear safety shoes
because they have a mistaken
idea such shoes are heavy or
look clumsy. But a safety
shoe today weighs only an
ounce more than an ordinary
shoe of similar rimraMopc Tr-.
appearance, you can hardly
tell safety shoes from regular
dress or street shoes. They
come in a wide variety of
styles and in several shades of
blown and in cordovan as
well as black. In addition to
the original high-laced safety
shoes, there are low-cut
dress-oxfords and moccasin
styles. Several styles are
available with oil-resistant or
non-slip soles and heels.
Today's employee whose
job exposes his toes to danger,
wears safety shoes. He
